We did put him down... in my living room... >_> the vet was on vacation and we didn't think he's make it a week in his condition.

My dad's a doctor so we basically put him down ourselves with a couple of injections... After we anesthesised him, we could see how bad shape he was when his breathing struggled, which the anesthesia shouldn't affect...

[color=navy][size=1]100x100 would look like shit on Neoseeker, on other sites the bigger signatures look alright too. It's how they're set up is why it looks right. I don't think the way Neoseeker looks would look right with 100x100. Tbh just because other garbage sites have 100x100 doesn't mean we need it, file size > avatar size at the moment. But yeah, 75-80 is fine for Neoseeker, we don't need 100x100. I went back to the suggestion thread for the bigger avatars and just did it on my good computer and it still looks like shit. Of course it would look better if the avatars were scaled right, but Neoseeker just doesn't need those big avatars on here. The forums don't work or look right with them. Of course if the forums ever get updated we might be able too, but again 75-80 is fine, it sticks out too much like Shadow of Death said. The avatars on here seem like they would be distracting too, on other forums that seem to be set up differently they are okay. On Neo there is a lot of empty stuff next to your avatar/mod tags and stuff, on other sites there is not and that's why it looks good......Actually now that I think about, I don't think it was like that on my dad's computer. It's because of the size of my computer screen/resolution I think, so maybe 100x100 wouldn't look too bad. But I'd rather have a size that works for everyone, not just some people begging for 100x100 that looks shitty anyways. They would have to shift the avatar thing and everything over for bigger resolution people....I don't know what I'm saying now, but 100x100 is just a big no imo. BIGGER IS NOT ALWAYS BETTER.

have you downloaded the files i linked in that thread? each file shows avvy sizes as percentages, not as pixels. as far as every user is concerned, its the same thing. and thats the whole point. every user sees the exact same thing.

the way we have it right now, you might see this:

but another person might see this:

this is an exaggerated example, but it gets the point across. percentage units stop this from happening. it makes everyone happier, and it makes layouts and designs easier from a web developers perspective. yet no one listens to me

sucks about your dog, though. ive had plenty of pets die on me. my first pet was a fighter fish. two months later, it died. of course, i was only 7 or 8 at the time, so i bawled my eyes out. same thing happened to the replacement fish (turns out they dont live long). eventually, i got my first bird. she died two weeks later from a stroke. i have a major soft spot for birds, so i lost it completely. then i got another bird, which was the white one i linked a while back in here. hes still alive, but i had to give him away when i moved to sweden, because i couldnt stand the thought of losing him like that. stress easily kills birds, so i took the less selfish option and let someone else have him. didnt make it much easier on me though. there was also a budgie i had to give away as well. damn he had a personality all of his own.

its depressing. some people will say that youll get over it in time, and to an extent, its true, but you will always miss them, no matter how many replacements you get, because its just not the same.

and at the same time, if i know one of my pets is suffering, id rather them die directly or indirectly because of me (ie, by my hand, or the vets), than to watch them suffer. i absolutely hate the fact that humans dont have this right in most places. id rather die with dignity, and of my own choosing, than to release the contents of my bowels all over myself on a daily basis, and have some nurse clean me up like my mother when i was a baby.

now lets forget all this depressing stuff and get back to happy times!

All resolution effects is the amount of the page you can see on screen, how much text you can have per line.

Best thing I can suggest is having options in each person's profile. Scaling of avatars (100x100, 85x86, original), so those that would take advantage of the new resolution options could use it, even if it does stick out a bit.
